The 2nd Richest Man In The World - Gives Away Over $1 Million - A DAY!

Most everyone knows who Bill Gates is. However, most have no idea of just how much money Bill Gates gives away. Many have heard of the Giving Pledge, (featured above) which was the brainchild of Gates and fellow billionaire Warren Buffett. The Giving Pledge is a commitment by the world's wealthiest individuals and families to dedicate the majority of their wealth to philanthropy. In other words, the billionaires will give most of their money away, instead of leaving it alone until they die and passing to their children or others. To whom they give it to is completely up to them. Bill Gates has been giving money away since 1997. That year he started his foundation and gave it (endowed) $97 million to give away to the needy. Gates most recently gave $50 million to the Ebola fight.

Gates charitable foundation, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation or the Gates Foundation, has an endowment of $40 billion, focusing on extreme poverty and poor health in developing countries, plus the failures of America’s education system and getting it in order. To date, Bill Gates has given away over $32 billion. If you break that down it is over $1 million per day. Now, that's what we call generous. Many other billionaires who donate money are giving the Gates Foundation substantial amounts to be distributed by the foundation anonymously. That way they don't have thousands of other charities seeing the gift they gave and then asking for some themselves. However they still get their tax breaks and their 'name in the paper' for the donation to the foundation. Donations to individuals are rarely published, but are happening all the time 'under the table' - as to not create a feeding frenzy of people asking for money. While yes, it is true there are billionaires that give nothing to charity, and we pretty much know who they are, we would never exclude them from our lists as we truly hope they receive letters from those less fortune explaining to them what it is really like out here in the 'real' world.

Most billionaires don't know just how hard times really have been for the average person and those who are not wealthy. We would also like to thank Bill Gates for all he has done for the world, and by giving money to the poor and those less fortunate. Thank you. We all truly appreciate it and are glad to have you as one of 'The Two Richest People In The World' and not some wealthy person who just doesn't care. Please countinue with all your good deeds and please continue your help to those that write to you and need your support. Thank you. Click if you would like to see Bill Gates house, here on our site.
